Last night kababs car decided to not let him back into it, so the alarm went off and we spent sometime trying to figure out how to start the thing to no avail.

So we decided to quickly go up the road to get his other key and as we pulled out of the car park in chatswood the police where coasting up and they promptly hit the disco lights and pulled me over.

I started to get out of the car but he asked I stay put, so I did and wound down the window.

The officer came up and asked whats going on, babs explained that his car was being temprimental and then I enquired if someone has reported it. He said they had gotten a call, he asked for my license and bab's number plate and then let us go. (after we both thanked him for his time and for doing this, he said that these cars are a bit of a target)

Its just nice to hear a positive police story every now and then.

Were they the same guys that pulled Dundan over for stopping in the middle of the road and having a cup of tea? :)

Cup of Tea?????

I was just waiting for you to catch up after I chopped you.

well response time is hard to judge because we dont know who called up. some people left the car park but paused for a bit at the entrance, they could have been the ones who called up. If thats the case then I would suggest 10 minutes would be close to the mark.

(PS. Donnie darko was brilliant, loved it and if you know where to get the dvd let me know)

gotta say, 10 min is pretty good. can we borrow some of your cops down south way:)

yeah Donnie was quiet the little masterpiece. unfortunately the DVD doesn't come out 'till June or thereabouts. an ex-rental copy on eBay went for $41 the other day. if you like your movies and can appreciate good work, watch "Amelie". I thought it was an exceptional movie. word of warning though. it's in French with english subtitles (better for it imo)

CHOP CHOP!!!

:P

yeah the cops were cool. It's a worry though that certain suburbs have so much interference that RF stuff just stops working (car alarms, WLAN etc). Makes you want to go out wearing a lead-lined hector...

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
